Ted, get out of here. I comment regularly on most sites and I see much more generally offensive stuff that doesn't personally bother me. There's always been something very Reader's Digest about the tone these comments. I thought it was quaint before, now that I see every other comment has some coded "successful and attractive" type racism, it's less adorable. As far as skimming, I don't know how many times I have to read "and sagging pants" before I start to understand what people mean and what the unspoken implications are.
Abusive comment hidden.
